This is definitely the place to see those one-off cars that you would have otherwise never even heard of.

I think people who can make cars like these are totally awesome. They create works of art.

We’ll say this, Dave’s cars have a fit and finish better than most. Just incredibly insane custom work!

Kindig's show dedicated a whole season to the development of the prototype car. Interesting to see on at auction, the prices he charges for his work are never disclosed on the show. I love most of what he does and the show gives a look behind the curtain of how a custom is built.

Should have got a lot more money 💰 for such beautiful craftsmanship and style. Whoever bought this one stole it

Love Dave's work and I loved seeing the evolution and design of this car. And he is a sweet guy to boot. Success well deserved.

Kindig & Foose are the 2 top car builders in my opinion.

Kindig's car building shop (it takes up a full city block) is featured on the Motor Trend Cable Channel. The 1953 "special edition" Corvettes had a several-week feature where they formed the molds, the dies, etc for these cars. Everything was computer modeled and hand built, with only the very best components put into them. These cars are designed for people with deep pockets who want a vintage Corvette of the highest quality. Its been enlarged nn the interior, as Dave Kindig points out. I think the winning bid was a little high, but then these are toys for the (really) big boys and you cannot get them anyplace else. BTW: Kindig spent a lot of time and development money to come up with the "blackest black" paint around, and people can see the difference between his "black" and commercial paint companies' "black."

What a gorgeous car. Black, straight and flawless paint. It's going to be a keepsake for someone.

[guynoir]

A lot of stuffed shirts there, not even a giggle from Dave's joke about throwing it together with some old spare parts laying around the shop . Great car Dave and great joke, you're the man .

[citibear]

My gawd, this vehicle is so beautiful !! If I was wealthy, this would sit in my man cave with easy chairs all around it so you can sit, admire it, and think about how money *can* buy happiness.

[tedmarakas]

Absolutely beautiful with an insane price tag.

[normanweaver]

Really love Dave's design aesthetic. Everything he does, pretty much

[coloflight]

[patbullard]

Beautiful work Dave. Totally awesome Corvette.

[cmcarley]

Dave’s work is incredible. They left off artistic when describing his work.

[garyseaton]

Dave, I am still impressed with your car. I loved watching your show as you went through the development process. This special edition is more than fantastic...

[JasonBlake-sclm]

I was there and sat behind the second highest bidder. It was that young kid that buys everything when he comes.
Anyone know who he is? I see him at each one buying and running from the cameras. His first name was Brad and apparently he's from Maryland.

Kindig The finest custom builder in the USA.

[JT-SE-OHIO]

Dave has the ideas and the guys in his shop make it come true.
